Sam and Bethan share £54 in the ratio 5:4<br> Work out how much each person gets.

jeyben [28]

Answer:

Sam: $30; Bethan: $24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio is 5:4 Sam has to pay 5/9 of the total which is 54. To find how much he pays set up the equation like this.

$\frac{x}{54} =\frac{5}{9}$

Cross Multiply

54(5)=9x

270=9x

Divide by 9

30=x

So Sam pays $30. To find out how much Bethan pays simply subtract 30 from 54

54-30=24

So Bethan pays $24
